Five Quemado Lake Fire Department volunteer firefighters have completed and been certified in CPR and defibrillator training: Jim Campbell, John Griffin, Don Parker, Don Zetich’s and Steve Ziegler.
The American Heart Association class was in July at the fire hall and was attended by 11 local folks. The instructors were Kori and Jim Henderson. Kori is a flight nurse with Air E Vac and Jim is a retired EMT.
“We have the defibrillators and now people trained to use them” said Fire Chief Jim Campbell.
Two defibrillators were donated to the QLFD a few months ago.
The Western New Mexico Veterans Group is extending its rummage sale to every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. throughout August. The hall is on the corner of Baca and Church streets in Quemado.
